The apartment is in a loft part forming part of an old farmhouse that was built in the 1850s. The farmhouse and the loft were recently lovingly restored.
By foot access to all restaurants and shopping spots in Barbizon & Fontainebleau forest.

Barbizon was ranked #4 preferred village in France. Indeed neighborhood is fantastic : direct access to the Barbizon departemental museum, to the tourist office, and to restaurants and local shops.
Direct access to the forest and best climbing spots.
Fontainebleau INSEAD is only 10 min away.
The apartment is perfectly located for climbers wishing to conveniently access some of the most famous bouldering areas in the Fontainbleau forest. The carparks for the Bas Cuvier and Gorges D'Apremont areas are just a few minutes' drive away or within easy walking or cycling distance

We had a great experience - Alexandre and Valérie were fantastic and helped us in every way we requested. They live in the main house (an old, renovated farmhouse), which shares a lovely off-street courtyard with the loft apartment and so they were always available to assist. They speak very good English. The apartment, which has its own private entrance, exceeded our expectations. It is very modern and is equipped with everything that you might need if you plan to self-cater. We shopped in the Carrefour supermarket (a 15 minute drive away) and cooked for ourselves most days. The location is quite peaceful and we slept very well. The apartment perfectly suits a couple and we understand that an extra bed can be provided for non-couples or for couples with a child. There is no TV, which I suppose might be a problem for some people, but there is WiFi access and we brought a tablet for watching movies in the evening. Barbizon village is beautiful. It is a little expensive generally but, to be fair, that is to be expected of such a picturesque and historic place. We found Barbizon to be the perfect place to stay for a bouldering holiday. For those of you reading this review who do not know what bouldering is; it is a kind of rockclimbing. The Fontainbleau forest is one of, if not the most famous places in the world for bouldering. Barbizon is within a short drive, and even within walking distance, to some of the best known bouldering areas in the forest (e.g. Bas Cuvier). If culture is your thing, Barbizon is full of it and is particulary interesting for students of art history. The Chateau in Fontainbleau (less than 20 minutes' drive away) makes for a superb day out and ranks amongst the best historic sites that we have ever visited. And finally, the local bakery is award-winning and not to be missed!

We had a really great stay at Alexandre and Valerie's loft, in Barbizon. First, Alexandre and Valerie were truly friendly hosts and made us feel at home in the beautifully renovated loft facing their magnificent old house. The place is very quiet though right in the centre of the village, with immediate access to the bakery, the butcher... We did not know Barbizon before and were amazed by the beauty of the village (especially with the flowers in bloom) and its surroundings. We visited several art galleries (good selection of pieces but quite expensive) and appreciated the fact that we could choose between several high quality restaurants in Barbizon itself - all of them at a walking distance from the loft. Barbizon was a great choice for a getaway weekend close to Paris but in a very countryside atmosphere. In fact, we enjoyed the village so much that we did not take the time to visit Fontainebleau, as we had initially planned. We will do it another time and will certainly make sure to stay at Alexandre and Valerie's loft again.

We spent a great 6 weeks at Emma's place. This light-filled three storey building in the heart of town was great for our family of four. We loved the kitchen in the sky with first hand weather reports and a feeling of space. The flat is quite noisy and echoey with its hard concrete floors, which was challenging at times with young kids, but the proximity to the town centre and the international school made it a great location for us. We kept our bikes downstairs and loved riding to the forest and through the palace grounds within a few minutes of the flat. Emma was very responsive when plumbing and other repairs were needed and was a good host.

Franck was an incredible host and he exceeded all my expectations. He welcomed me very warmly and he explained the house to every single detail. The house is great with a nice and peacefull garden, very comfortable rooms and all the things that you may need are supplied. It is very close to Insead. I was very satisfied about my stay.

It was exactly what we were looking for - private, cozy and clean. Would love to go back again - would definitely rent this property! Centrally located to INSEAD and the town of Fontainebleau. We were very pleased with the home since we had a 3 week stay. We had everything we needed - Franck - our host was always at our disposal; very helpful and genuine. Loved the location, very peaceful and relaxing. The house itself was wonderful, beautifully decorated. And as we said, the owner was a pleasure to deal with. We loved the fact that Franck made sure we felt at "home". We would definitely rent this house from this owner in the future.
